Oooooo.... It looks perrrty =D

But I don't like the name  (I'm sure it means something awesome, but I still don't like it )

But it will be good to see mix tech more common. 


Oh btw. Sorry to poop on this thread, but, is there any chance we could see something from the Borg race redo? ie next patch

You have never heard of Okinawa? World war 2 in the Pacific First battle on Japanese soil?

For Crying out loud, take pick from any of these Google search results:

Actually, I do know of it. I google defined Okinawa right after I made the post.

Does anyone remember the Okinawa from Starfleet Command?

I used to like that version, for it's quaint attempt at being remotely useful. I much prefer this newer version

Nice to know that mixed tech will play a bigger role in the future, right now i just feel like its not worth while, and it would certainly be nice to add a new element to team play.

I agree.  Most mixed tech is just too expensive.  Why would I build a whole nother yard, and buy the research just to get a little boost for my defiant?

the sensor pod is actually an experimental quantum phaser. Happy toasting!

So a beam-type phaser that's quantum? Awesome!!!  

Many thanks to the Devs.
Btw, I see there is no worshiping smily; I was going to use one of them in the previous statement.

I agree zaxxon, to much money, and to much time to build the yard, and then too much time to build each ship,

As much as i love the miranda too, and it is so usefull, i just cant seem to justify building a yard for it,

And i would really love to want, and need to build mixed tech,

yeah.  Maybe if mixed tech didn't make you better against that race, but use that alien tech to be better overall against all races.  And since they are your allies, it shouldn't cost you an arm and a leg to get it.  It is already hard enough to capture a construction ship.

Hehe, both of you need to play more online . Nonetheless, as Zeich has said, mixed-tech will change - though not in the way you think it will apparently . Optec made a few posts about it

He did?!?!?!

At the other guys... if you play in team games online then sometimes you can get away with going early mixed-tech, especially as the Feds who get warp-ins so are less starved for ships.  If you can pull it off then you can get some really kick ass ships without teching up.

Cloaking defiants!  What's not to love about them?

And for the Dom... V-15's. oh, baby!

Mixed-tech is viable in multiplayer for 3v3s on up (2v2 would be risky), but it gives you too few ships to make it better than a normal yard (less countering options), has no repair, and usually only one ship from each mixed tech yard is great while the others suck or are just as good as their regular counterparts with maybe a few extra offense or defense (who builds Fed's Rom mixed-tech yards for something other than cloaking Defiants?)

in a team game you should probably make a normal yard first. so u get ships.

if the mixed tech ship is awesome then second yard as mixed tech can be possible.

ie for miranda II your second yard can be mixed tech if u have a fleet and arent getting killed. because the miranada IIs are worth it.

but for weaker mixed tech u might want to make mixed tech as your third yard.

the most common mixed tech we see is miranda II and dread. as those are really awesome.

although the edjen is nice too, its special is fun.

Personally I hate it, I think it's the Ugliest ship I've seen in Trek, but I like the textures.
